[01:35] ---
    This…can't be.
[01:37] ---
    What is happening?!
[01:50] ---
    Snap out of it, Tsunade!
[01:53] ---
    What's going on?!
[02:42] ---
    I've completed my latest work!
[02:46] ---
    Jiraiya!
    You never even contacted me—!
[03:01] ---
    JIRAIYA NINJA SCROLLS
[03:07] ---
    SAKA-SAKAYA
[03:15] ---
    What are you doing?
[03:16] ---
    I'm in the middle of writing
    my latest work.
[03:18] ---
    Another "Makeout" whatever…
    So ridiculous.
[03:21] ---
    Now that hurts.
[03:23] ---
    This new novel is different from
    the others and very innovative.
[03:27] ---
    I'm still in the middle of it,
[03:28] ---
    but it will be a masterpiece
    about the "future of shinobi."
[03:32] ---
    You'll be the first to read it
    when it's finished.
[03:34] ---
    No thanks.
[03:41] ---
    "Jiraiya Ninja Scrolls"…
[03:48] ---
    "Long ago, there was a Fox Spirit.
    This fox had nine tails…"
[03:53] ---
    "If this fox lashed its tails once,"
[03:54] ---
    "it could smash mountains
    and create tidal waves."
[03:56] ---
    "A band on ninja arose to defend
    their village from attack."
[04:00] ---
    "A lone shinobi staked his life
    to seal away this beast."
[04:15] ---
    'Morning.
[04:16] ---
    'Morning!
[04:17] ---
    You came home late last night.
[04:19] ---
    Yeah… I was with Lord Third.
[04:23] ---
    How did your discussion go?
[04:24] ---
    Huh?
[04:25] ---
    You mentioned an important meeting.
    Did it go well?
[04:39] ---
    There's no need for you to
    dirty your hands anymore.
[04:44] ---
    The unlikeliest alliance between
    the Uchiha and Senju
[04:49] ---
    has protected the peace
    of the Hidden Leaf Village…
[04:53] ---
    And will continue
    from this night forward
[04:55] ---
    until the end of time.
[05:10] ---
    Oh, it was fine.
[05:12] ---
    Where's Naruto?
[05:13] ---
    He said an important mission
    was going to be assigned today
[05:15] ---
    so he couldn't be late, but…
[05:19] ---
    Naruto!
[05:21] ---
    Naruto!
[05:28] ---
    What?!
    It's already this late?
[05:31] ---
    'Morning!
[05:35] ---
    I'm off!
[05:36] ---
    Hey, that's bad manners!
[05:40] ---
    I have to hurry or I won't make it
[05:42] ---
    for the meeting time
    Kakashi's Sensei set!
[05:45] ---
    It's always like this.
[05:48] ---
    You spoil him too much!
    Can you please scold him too?
[05:52] ---
    All right… All right.
[05:59] ---
    All right!
[05:59] ---
    We're going to get
    an S-ranked mission today!
[06:02] ---
    Oh, isn't that the Nine-Tailed…
[06:05] ---
    He's still the Hokage's son.
[06:08] ---
    Just let sleeping dogs lie…
[06:10] ---
    I don't like it one bit.
[06:13] ---
    All right!
[06:16] ---
    Who's there?! Scaring me like that!
[06:19] ---
    Hey!
[06:20] ---
    Oh, it's you, Young Lord Naruto!
[06:23] ---
    Mister, how much is this mask?
[06:25] ---
    Don't even ask!
[06:27] ---
    I can't take money from you,
    Young Lord!
[06:29] ---
    Lord Hokage would
    scold me if I did!
[06:32] ---
    Please take it.
[06:36] ---
    That's okay.
    I don't have any money today.
[06:39] ---
    I see…
[06:40] ---
    Thank you though.
    I'll come back to buy it.
[06:47] ---
    Sheesh! Lord Hokage this,
    Lord Hokage that…
[06:53] ---
    Hey, throw some salt!
[06:56] ---
    It's supposed to be a secret
    in the village…
[07:00] ---
    But everyone knows
    what that kid is.
[07:03] ---
    If he weren't the Hokage's son,
[07:05] ---
    he'd have been chased out of
    the village by now.
[07:16] ---
    Hey, Shiro! 'Morning!
[07:18] ---
    Oh, Naruto! Good morning.
[07:21] ---
    Hey, Big Brother Itachi!
    Good morning. Is Sasuke around?
[07:26] ---
    Thanks for coming
    to see him all the time.
[07:28] ---
    My kid brother is
    just so unfriendly.
[07:31] ---
    Leave him to me!
[07:33] ---
    I'll train him right.
[07:35] ---
    Thanks. Be a good friend to him.
[07:37] ---
    Sure.
[07:39] ---
    Who's training whom?
[07:41] ---
    I'm not so pitiful that I need
    a loser like you to train me!
[07:46] ---
    It's okay! I don't mind at all.
    We're friends, aren't we?
[07:48] ---
    Since when are we friends?!
[07:50] ---
    You don't have to come and
    get me every morning!
[07:53] ---
    Just seeing your face during
    missions is more than enough!
[07:57] ---
    Yeah right…
    you're actually happy that I came.
[08:22] ---
    What's wrong?
[08:23] ---
    Who's that?!
[08:28] ---
    What happened?!
[08:30] ---
    Are you okay?
[08:31] ---
    Hang in there.
[08:33] ---
    A-Ageha…
[08:41] ---
    Kakashi Sensei,
    what's our new mission?
[08:45] ---
    Before that,
    I want to show you something.
[08:49] ---
    Look here.
[08:50] ---
    The names of legendary heroes
    are carved here.
[08:55] ---
    Legendary heroes?
[08:58] ---
    I'm definitely going to make it
    so my name gets on here!
[09:02] ---
    They were all killed in action
    during missions for our village.
[09:06] ---
    Huh?!
[09:10] ---
    But there are those who
    put their lives at risk
[09:12] ---
    and fought for the village…
[09:13] ---
    and even saved their comrades.
[09:15] ---
    Yet, they weren't given
    a heroes' burial,
[09:17] ---
    let alone buried in
    an ordinary grave.
[09:24] ---
    Why isn't this person
    with the others?
[09:29] ---
    During an extremely
    difficult mission,
[09:30] ---
    he was a captain and
    infiltrated enemy territory…
[09:32] ---
    There, he was faced
    with a difficult choice.
[09:35] ---
    Continue the mission or
    sacrifice the lives of his men…
[09:39] ---
    Which did he choose?
[09:40] ---
    Clearly, he chose
    his comrades' lives, right?
[09:43] ---
    In order to save the lives
    of his comrades,
[09:45] ---
    he cancelled the mission.
[09:47] ---
    I knew it!
[09:49] ---
    However,
    the village suffered huge losses.
[09:52] ---
    He was held responsible
    and blamed for his actions…
[09:55] ---
    In the end, even the men whose
    lives he saved criticized him.
[10:01] ---
    As a result, the deep hurt took
    its toll mentally and physically…
[10:05] ---
    and he took his own life.
[10:07] ---
    – But…that's—!
    – Why?!
[10:09] ---
    He broke the code in order to
    save his men's lives!
[10:14] ---
    The first thing we learn
    at the Academy is that
[10:17] ---
    the mission takes utmost priority,
    under the shinobi rules.
[10:20] ---
    But!
[10:21] ---
    In the shinobi world,
    those who break the rules are scum.
[10:27] ---
    That's…
[10:28] ---
    However! Those who don't
    value their comrades…
[10:33] ---
    …are worse than scum.
[10:38] ---
    And so, until you get
    the signal to assemble…
[10:42] ---
    go do some training.
[10:44] ---
    Scatter!
[10:45] ---
    – R-Right!
    – R-Right!
[10:49] ---
    What's the matter?
[10:51] ---
    So tell me…
[10:53] ---
    Why was I grouped together
    with Naruto?
[10:56] ---
    Do you object?
[10:57] ---
    No, I don't have a problem with it.
[11:00] ---
    But if he's put on a team
[11:02] ---
    where there's too much of
    a difference in skill levels,
[11:04] ---
    he's bound to suffer.
[11:06] ---
    You were the Academy's
    most promising student.
[11:09] ---
    Are you blaming Naruto
[11:11] ---
    for S-ranked missions
    not coming your way?
[11:12] ---
    Because it certainly seems that way.
[11:15] ---
    I didn't mean it like that…
[11:17] ---
    It could just be the opposite.
[11:27] ---
    I have a feeling that today's the day
    that we'll get an S-ranked mission!
[11:31] ---
    All right! I'm gonna go all out!
[11:33] ---
    Honestly…
[11:34] ---
    How can you be so positive
    about life?
[11:38] ---
    Well, I'm gonna be
    the Hokage some day!
[11:41] ---
    For the sake of the village,
    I can't be a downer!
[11:44] ---
    Talk about dreaming…
[11:45] ---
    No…
[11:49] ---
    It's possible Naruto
    might become the Hokage.
[11:52] ---
    Sasuke!
[11:55] ---
    So you do acknowledge
    my abilities, after all!
[11:59] ---
    Don't be stupid.
[12:01] ---
    You're the son of the Fourth Hokage.
[12:04] ---
    I'm just saying even the biggest loser
[12:06] ---
    can follow in the Hokage's footsteps
    with a little favoritism.
[12:09] ---
    What?!
[12:10] ---
    You have no right to
    talk to me like that
[12:12] ---
    until you beat me with your ninjutsu!
[12:16] ---
    I don't need ninjutsu to beat you!
[12:25] ---
    Lions Barrage!
[12:29] ---
    Stop! Don't fight!
    We're on the same team!
[12:34] ---
    That was nothing…
[12:39] ---
    Sasuke! Let's race to see who can
    make it to the top of that rock.
[12:43] ---
    On your mark!
[12:44] ---
    Hey!
[12:45] ---
    Get ready…go!
[12:48] ---
    He doesn't know when to give up!
[12:56] ---
    Lord Hokage just gave us
    the sign to assemble.
[12:59] ---
    But Naruto is…
[13:01] ---
    What about Naruto?
[13:06] ---
    Damn it! Like I'm going to give up.
[13:08] ---
    I'll never give up
    despite what anyone says!
[13:11] ---
    Sasuke…
[13:12] ---
    I don't see him catching up!
    I knew it!
[13:30] ---
    Damn it!
[13:50] ---
    It will be interesting to see…
[13:51] ---
    whether the power
    you have been given is truly for you.
[13:57] ---
    If you don't want to die,
    figure it out yourself!
[14:04] ---
    I'll never give up!
    Never! Never! No way!
[14:23] ---
    A voice in pain…
    A bitter and sad voice…
[15:01] ---
    Y-You're huge!
[15:05] ---
    You're the—!
[15:08] ---
    I wasn't expecting to
    hear that from you…
[15:11] ---
    Didn't your parents tell you?
[15:15] ---
    Oh, you're the Nine-Tails, right!
[15:19] ---
    Then this will be quick.
[15:21] ---
    What brings you to me?
[15:25] ---
    I'm letting you live inside my body.
    You owe me some rent.
[15:30] ---
    What?!
[15:31] ---
    Lend me your chakra!
[15:37] ---
    You, ordering me around?
[15:50] ---
    You're greatly mistaken…
[15:53] ---
    Anyway, if you die, I die.
[16:15] ---
    I'll show you first.
[16:23] ---
    Watch carefully!
[16:25] ---
    Summoning Jutsu!
[16:28] ---
    If I could do that…
[16:30] ---
    Summoning Jutsu!
[16:48] ---
    I'm safe.
[16:55] ---
    So Naruto dashed off for that rock?
[16:59] ---
    Yes… He challenged Sasuke
    to a race.
[17:03] ---
    But I didn't want to get involved.
[17:11] ---
    It seems he jumped over this.
[17:14] ---
    What?
    He fell from here?!
[17:17] ---
    What a fool.
[17:19] ---
    Hey! What are you doing?
[17:21] ---
    Better hurry or Dad
    will get mad at us!
[17:31] ---
    FOURTH HOKAGE
[17:36] ---
    Jiraiya Sensei…
[17:39] ---
    Over there!
[17:51] ---
    I must put up a barrier immediately…
[17:54] ---
    My chakra is almost…
[17:56] ---
    I can still do it…Minato.
[18:10] ---
    Kushina!
[18:15] ---
    Did I wake you up?
[18:17] ---
    I'm sorry, Naruto…
[18:20] ---
    Kushina…
[18:21] ---
    I'm going to pull the Nine Tails
    with me…
[18:25] ---
    to my death…
[18:26] ---
    Then…
[18:29] ---
    Kushina, there's no need for you
    to die with the Nine Tails…
[18:34] ---
    You sealing the Nine Tails' chakra in
    your state is physically impossible.
[18:38] ---
    But half should be possible…
[18:41] ---
    And the other half?
[18:43] ---
    I will seal it inside Naruto
    with the Eight Signed Seal!
[18:48] ---
    I know what you want to say…
[18:50] ---
    But in time, the Nine Tails' chakra…
[18:53] ---
    will open up Naruto's future
    as a Jinchuriki.
[19:05] ---
    I believe that if Naruto is ever
    in danger, it will be invaluable.
[19:13] ---
    But right now,
    it seems to be just the opposite.
[19:15] ---
    Well, he's just not able to manage
[19:18] ---
    the Nine Tails'
    enormous power yet…
[19:21] ---
    I'm sure he'll learn to
    control it in time.
[19:25] ---
    If…Naruto is truly
    the Child of Prophecy.
[19:32] ---
    But if he's not able to
    fully control the Nine Tails…
[19:39] ---
    Was it too soon…
    to let you go on this mission?
[19:43] ---
    No, sooner or later…
    You'll have to overcome this trial.
[20:00] ---
    All of our classmates have
    assembled for this mission.
[20:04] ---
    Yeah…
[20:05] ---
    It's turned out just as we feared, huh.
[20:08] ---
    What?
[20:09] ---
    Well, I want as little as possible
    to do with that guy
[20:12] ---
    and complete the mission
    successfully.
[20:15] ---
    Each team will take
    a separate route to the target site.
[20:19] ---
    Once there, you will search
    for the missing shinobi.
[20:24] ---
    Send word the minute
    you discover them!
[20:27] ---
    Do not rush out to try
    and rescue them!
[20:31] ---
    Understand?
[20:32] ---
    You don't have to keep reminding us.
[20:36] ---
    I'll rescue every one of them!
[20:38] ---
    Seems like someone over there
    doesn't get it.
[20:41] ---
    I knew it… This is going to
    turn out to be a drag.
[20:45] ---
    Scatter!
[20:58] ---
    All right! Let's do this!
[22:38] ---
    Right around then, the young shinobi
    who just made genin,
    
    
[22:42] ---
    made their way to a village
    that had lost their jonin.
    
    
[22:47] ---
    Amongst them was
    the Child of Prophecy, Naruto.
    
    
[22:51] ---
    I know it's sudden, but let me
    go over the next mission.
    
    
[22:55] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "The Search Mission."
    
    
    
[23:00] ---
    Naruto, you will most likely be
    the one who…

    THE TALE OF NARUTO THE HERO
    THE SEARCH MISSION
    
    
    
[23:04] ---
